You know yourself that for embedded connections on open source product any credential validation is not reliable - everyone can rebuild required dynamic library commenting out 2-3 lines where needed and become SYSDBA. I think that the only reliable thing for embedded is rights of OS user. Use of them to check access to host filesystem appears native. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting.
